  1. Yip - an article on Clogherhead has been submitted!
  2. I definitely have an addiction for creating small buildings….. The regular bus drivers at Clogherhead started protesting that they had nowhere to sit in comfort whilst awaiting the arrival of passengers, other than in the actual buses. So the kindly management of the GNR generously provided a small shelter for them, and of course they had to put their familiar architectural stamp on it…..
  3. Simply superb!
  4. Incredible to think how small this is!!! Looking super!!
  5. Excellent technique
  6. What an unusual creature!!!
  7. Thank you - they are from Sunrise Models, in Scotland!
  8. Super - and nice view of the goods shed too.
  9. I have done a bit of remodelling today of the last unfinished corner of the layout: an intended bus turning circle in the forecourt looked a bit too tight to be even remotely realistic, so I have changed it into a simple parking area with a suggested turning circle now located through a new gateway to the right: Still a bit tight overall but the effect is generally acceptable I think. A lot of DAS clay was used so once this dries fully I will paint the road surface grey.
  10. Only seeing this now, vvvvvery impressive!!!!
  11. Always look forward to your updates Patrick and this one is as good as any! Super atmosphere.
  12. I haven't been overly happy with this little chap, a disused kiosk I built for my beach: So I decided to replace it with a more detailed one, assembled from items in the spares box:
  13. Time to give this one some traction again....... only because over on the Railway Modellers Ireland Facebook group, Fran revealed that there would be an 'all-new' IRM announcement in the next few weeks. The Bangor show is approaching so could it be timed to coincide, could it be a long-awaited steam announcement (aren't there actually at least two of these?) and might there be a northern connection (surely a BCDR connection is too much to hope for )? I'm still thinking one of the steam announcements will be RPSI-related..... No active countdown widget on the IRM site at the moment......
  14. Cracking platforms!
  15. Thanks again Ernie for a lovely selection of photos.
  16. Absolutely love the small shed!! Can you imagine the cosy atmosphere in there on a hard winter's night in 1947, with a couple of loco crew having a cuppa and warming themselves by the gas stove before heading out into the driving snow to make the long walk across to Grosvenor Road goods yard to take the overnight goods train over the Derry Road.......
  17. Some small but impressive detail items going onto the layout tomorrow, resin prints by Owen O’Neill. Lovely!!! The dodgy paint job is mine
  18. That looks fabulous, any more pictures?
  19. Oops, I have either missed those or forgotten Can’t find the post either, can you tag me or share again?
  20. Any clues on the era or region, Leslie? You have been very generous with us GNR folks recently, so I imagine it might be something to counterbalance that…..?
